Hi, it's Savannah from the meetup! I'm now a watcher of your art :D (Big Grin) And I must say, your works appeal to my love of monsters/creatures and oddity. Very cool portfolio!!

Hi Savannah. I'm not much on DA these days, but still love the site. There are too many social networking sites for a guys with a limited attention spans. I get dizzy. Thanks commenting on my work. I'll try and make it out to the next meetup, I've been way to anti-social lately.

hey!.. I really love your work..
can you give me som good advice, how to be a good animator?? and how to be soo good to draw :P (Lick)

JoeyGates In reply to nisa007 [2011-06-08 18:05:15 +0000 UTC]

Hi Nisa,

The best advice I can give is to keep going with the desire to create. That desire is the fuel that will move you forward. The other thing I wished I would have done sooner in my life is to get feedback from artist about your work. Posting on DA is great because you can get feedback. I drew for years and never really showed too many people.

Hi! Yes I am as random as they come. Random is one way to deviate. I think my stuff all revolves around stories, if there is one constant. Right now I'm animating and loving it.

You are welcome and worth it.
Great stuff in your gallery too.

I think this one got me with its line quality, composition and color palate. They all work hauntingly well.

Hauntingly… being a good thing, just unforgettable.
